Yes, I'm amazed at the level of expertise and generous help too!

Just loaded another map which seemed to help the idle, though it still needs work.

Just as a point of clarification, in a boosted/turbo's motor, what's the proper convention for pressures...

For example if at idle I am reading 51kpa, that's obviously vacuum.

If I read 140kpa at a given RPM, that's 20.3psi. But you quote that in conversation as 7 psi, right? Since the first 14psi (101kpa) is normal atmosphere at sea level. And 165kpa is 23.9psi but that's discussed as 10psi boost. Correct?
